Urgent Personal Requests and Warnings

9

Be diligent to come unto me quickly,

10

for Demas forsook me, having loved the present age, and went on to Thessalonica, Crescens to Galatia, Titus to Dalmatia,

11

Lukas only is with me; Markus having taken, bring with thyself, for he is profitable to me for ministration;

12

and Tychicus I sent to Ephesus;

13

the cloak that I left in Troas with Carpus, coming, bring thou and the books--especially the parchments.

14

Alexander the coppersmith did me much evil; may the Lord repay to him according to his works,

15

of whom also do thou beware, for greatly hath he stood against our words;

16

in my first defence no one stood with me, but all forsook me, (may it not be reckoned to them!)

17

and the Lord stood by me, and did strengthen me, that through me the preaching might be fully assured, and all the nations might hear, and I was freed out of the mouth of a lion,

18

and the Lord shall free me from every evil work, and shall save me --to his heavenly kingdom; to whom is the glory to the ages of the ages! Amen.
